Bring durability to serveware

Eastman Tritan™ copolyester offers toughness, impact strength and shatter resistance to create long-lasting commercial serveware and tableware that stands up to high use. It also stands out thanks to clarity and moldability that provide design flexibility. With the ability to weather commercial dishwashing, BPA-free Tritan is the long-term solution you’re looking for.

Looking to add sustainability to your reusable dishes? Eastman Tritan™ Renew can provide the same level of quality as legacy Tritan while improving your sustainability thanks to certified recycled content.*

If you need a strong material that can stand up to the pace and pressure of food service, Tritan delivers.

A better choice for single use

There’s a more responsible alternative to traditional plastics in disposable food service products — and it’s available now. Eastman Aventa™ compostable materials offer a much-needed option to improve the environmental profile of single-use items like cutlery and straws. Compostable and biodegradable Aventa will return to the earth — without remaining as microplastics.

Also available as Aventa Renew with certified recycled content,* Aventa is biobased and sourced from sustainable wood pulp. Items made with Aventa look and perform like their traditional counterparts but, once disposed of, can break down in soil. Choose an option that will make a change for the better by choosing Aventa.

A more sustainable way to go

Food delivery and quick service restaurants are staples of modern life, but single-use items like disposable cups and takeout containers often cannot be recycled or composted. Those ready for a change can turn to Eastman Solus™ performance additives for paper coatings. 

Solus™ enhances sustainability from the start with biobased and optional recycled content via molecular recycling.* It also provides valuable end-of-life options including recyclability in paper stream and compostability. That means Solus™ can help keep materials out of landfills. It can also ensure ease of processing for biopolymers (e.g., BioPBS™) on paper and paperboard, making it ideal for to-go packaging.

Solus™ helps brands meet customer standards for sustainability and comply with increasingly stringent regulations without compromising performance.
